Dual Cold Air Intake
Ive seen these twin/dual cold air intakes on corvettes, and I thought they look really cool. Does anybody know what id have to do to get one of these things to fit on my 85 iroc. it would also be good to know if they work. If not suggestion would be great. Thanks

Re: Dual Cold Air Intake
Don't you currently have the factory dual air filter on your engine? If so you are better off with that most likely than messing around with that.

Re: Dual Cold Air Intake
I do, Are you saying that the power gains from switching out OEM Intake isn't worth switching it out?

Re: Dual Cold Air Intake
The engineers knew what they were doing with the dual outside air intake on the Iroc's .... Cool dence air is what you want. Drive your car on a warm day and then a cool evening and the difference is even more noticeable.

Re: Dual Cold Air Intake
The only thing wrong with the factory setup you have is finding replacement standard air filters for it; that's about the only reason I have K&Ns
